We will be continuing to use White Rose for our maths learning this week. Each day, watch the video and then either print the worksheet or just write the answers on paper.
This week, we will be exploring fractions. To start off with, you could try cutting or folding objects into half. When you cut something in half, how many pieces do you get? How accurate can you be with your folding or cutting? Make sure it's equal!
Can you do some Doodle Maths every day?
